Fallout from Tequila Night. (you make me crave sequels)

Tattoos, by their nature, are impossible to hide forever.  Especially drunken ones.  It’s inevitable.  So, somehow, one way or another, someone is gonna find out about the tats Kitty and Rogue got of each others’ names on their butts.  And immediately jump to a conclusion: they’re dating.  Why else would they get such fancy ink in such an intimate place?  Sure, they’ll try to deny it, but rumors are quick to spread and very hard to kill…

She used to love that skirt. But never loved it again after Pietro made her flash her ass to half the goddamn school.

Everyone saw it.

“You have a tattoo? Who the hell is Marie Dan can’t go?”

“Lance…”

“Answer the question, damnit.”

Sigh. “It’s Rogue. And it’s pronounced D'ancanto.”

“AND WHY IS HER NAME ON YOUR ASS?”

“Why should it even matter whose name I have on my ass?”

“I have to grab that ass!”

“Well, if it’s such a chore, you can like, stop.”

Lance sputtered. “Wait, no, I didn’t mean it like that… I mean, you and her; how does it even work? Do I get to watch?”

“Don’t be gross! Even if Rogue and I had something, that would be disgusting!”

“So… you’re cheating on me with her? Or do you two go at it when we’re broken up again?”

Kitty rolled her eyes and tried flat-out sarcasm. “No, I got it when I thought we were forever and then she broke up with me straight after. Care to contribute to the laser surgery?”

Sarcasm, as usual, was lost on the slow of mind. “No way, this is totally hot! Reckon we could arrange a threesome for old times’ sake?”

“Oh my God, just like, go away and die in a fire.”

And that was how the scurrilous rumours got started.

Challenge #00242: One Fine Afternoon Just Outside the Danger Room

A romantic moment between Scott and Jean that starts after she witnesses the New Recruits realizing that an less emotionally restrained Scott as Danger Room facilitator means a tough day for all.

Argh. Her aches had aches. Jean had lingered in the hot shower in an attempt to soothe them. She was still stretching in the hall when the younger recruits passed her by.

“Ow!”

“Man, my aches have aches…”

“The aches of my aches have

Challenge #00241: Household Gods

Papier-mache elves.

He knew he shouldn’t ask. Technically speaking, anything that kept Shayde busy and not in anyone’s business was a good thing. Anything that kept her out of Sherlock’s notice was wonderful.

Apart from the fact that Sherlock now had her on his permanent watch list, and her alarming habit this time had been buying the cheapest paper and glue available. Which meant she was up to something.

Which meant Rael, once again, had to

Challenge #00240: Posting Bills on Jellynet

Subconsciously transmitted soul level personal ads transmitted via peer to peer, human to human internet powered by implants in the brain stem and the strange pairings that emerge from their usage. Base the story in the city you know most intimately.

It was cheap. It had no carrier feeds. It drastically reduced the volume of people who had no way to understand what life was like for other people.

People on Jellynet were almost 100% more likely to be civil, understanding, generous,

Didn't We Already Fix That?!

A recurrence.

(#00240)

“Hey, check this out,” the fellow queuer passed over a pamphlet.

It was the immunoflu update, naming the diseases that the adjusted virus would protect the infected from.

A pointing finger indicated the anomaly. “What the heck is measles?”

“I know, right? That’s like… some weird human name or something.”

“Yes, but viruses have taxonomic names,” she argued. “For something to have a common name, it has

nowyoukno more about diet soda.

Other negative long term effects of drinking diet coke include Kidney problems, bone density loss, high blood pressure, and much more.

Guess who’s gonna stop drinking diet soda?

“ #unless these are false ”

They are true. Diet soda is horrible; if for nothing other than the fact that they are using chemical sweeteners (and the fact that Diet doesn’t taste as good as Original). Your body doesn’t know what to

Challenge #00239: Elemental, my dear...

Following someone around wearing a deerstalker and peering through a magnifying glass, whilst deducing things. With someone named Sherlock around, it was too good an opportunity to pass up. Bonus points for an exasperated Watson getting dragged along.

Eridite Watson passed from transitory population zones to residential in a cloud of chemicals. She dutifully breathed in the immunoflu, after breathing out her own local germs for Medical to catalogue as harmless. All before she put her clothes back on.

At least they

Stop, in the name of cheesecake!

“Next time we’re both after the same thing…” she offered, “perhaps we can call a truce in the name of cheesecake.”

“Work out which is really the best? Sounds like a plan, then." 

Raven and Rahne meet again, not quite so "off duty” as before.  Jokingly, as part of the typical “witty banter” comicbook fights always have, one of them does call for the “cheesecake truce”, and to their surprise, the other remembers
